Fractional CFO

The Problem

As a fast-growing company or scale-up, you’re likely facing significant financial challenges. You need stability and reliable financial reporting to drive informed decisions. However, building a full in-house finance team—complete with a bookkeeper, financial manager, and a CFO—is both costly and challenging for businesses that are not yet large enough to justify such an investment.

The Solution

Our Fractional CFO Services are designed to fill these gaps, providing you with the expertise you need at a fraction of the cost. We help you stabilise your financial operations, ensure compliance, and provide strategic financial insights that can drive your business forward.

Is your financial strategy designed to scale with your business?

"We have been operating for over 20 years but our business has really flourished in the last four years – and this has a lot to do with our strategic relationship with Finovate. We started out with their accounting services and expanded into recruitment – we’ve since worked on a number of strategic projects and envision future opportunities to develop with Finovate around data analytics and HR employment law. Finovate took time to get to know our business model and there is no question they add value. Suffice to say I would not hesitate to recommend Finovate to any UK small to medium business."

The Savanna

"Finovate's fractional CFO offering was instrumental in helping us commercialise our idea and build a financial model that demonstrated its commercial viability. They also assisted us in raising the startup capital we needed to get off the ground. Currently, they continue to support us in Exco meetings, ensuring that our big deals and decisions are structured in a commercially viable way, allowing us to offer great value to our clients while maintaining healthy cash flow."

HireJustNow

"We started our online subscription business pre-covid (before Brexit) and were struggling to make the concept work – Finovate helped us pull back, restructure and reassess the business model, then slowly rebuild. We found their approach to budgeting and setting new financial targets refreshing. This is a key partnership for us and we would be happy referring Finovate to other like-minded businesses."

M-eat Biltong Ltd

"Our business is a simple property business (warehousing) and we just wanted a relatively basic level of financial support. We were referred to Finovate after finding many local accountancy firms way too expensive. For us, Finovate doesn't over-complicate things – they use systems like Xero, everything is cloud based, we keep things tight – our finance function is fairly simple and Finovate are totally aligned with us. They’ve made our finance function a breeze to manage."
